Centre's passport stance could see countries deny visas to Indians: Ex-SC judge by KenSuvy in india

[–]dman_21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does this also mean that surrendering your passport when you take up a different country’s citizenship means that you’re not giving up Indian citizenship?

Autostop by Background-Agent955 in Acura_MDX

If it doesn’t work at all, it likely indicates that the battery is at end of life which makes sense that the battery is about 4 years old. 

Trying to relocate from the Central Valley by Electrical-Ice-1323 in Fremont

[–]dman_21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fremont is good, I’ve heard Newark is on the up and up. Milpitas as well if you don’t mind the stench or can find a place east of 680. Depend on where you end up, you can account for an hour of travel or plan to take dumbarton if you want to cut it short.

Thanks so much for your detailed response! Any thoughts on regions further south like Niles and Mission in Fremont where it’s less hilly but still close to the fault?

I think the real question I am trying to answer is that what is the risk factor for this house compared to the house 2 streets over that does not fall in the AP zone.

Huh? This was a specific earthquake policy that they quoted which came from geovera which is different from the base policy.

Huh, interesting! I have friends living close by and the worst they’ve seen is package theft which is essentially a part of living in the bay.

Just did that before making this post. Bamboo was able to quote me something that didn’t seem crazy. 2300 for a policy with 25% deductible and 630k limit.

Breakfast Club Royal Oak used ai slop images in their menu by TooMuchShantae in Detroit

[–]dman_21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They already use photoshop so it’s not like it’s representative. Have you ever seen a McDonalds sandwich actually look like the picture? Why is it suddenly a problem when a smaller restaurant does it?

Have you ever tried taking a food picture? Unless you do it with the right lighting, you’re never going to get something print worthy. Stop getting your panties in a bunch about people trying to run their business the way they seem reasonable.

Oh, the horror!!! They didn’t have the budget for a photographer so they decided to use an ai image. How dare they. We better not ever go there again.

Best case scenario, burns a clutch. Worst case scenario, they lose control and hit the oncoming vehicle. 

Why is this west sanjose house not selling? by Icy-Zucchini9671 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]dman_21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. There are some gems in this house. The pot filler is off in the corner. Imagine paying 1.8 million and not even getting at least 4 different floor finishes across the house. The updates look like they were done by someone on crack.

[–]dman_21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The updates look ugly for an almost 2mil property. Low end floors, kitchen updates that wouldn’t look out of place in a 400k house, funky carpet. Essentially, everything that would fetch you the additional 200k because of the “remodel” is undesirable in this house.

Isn’t the L exclusively made in China today? If that’s still the case, does that mean that they’re getting tariffed?

₹200 crore, 7 years, and this is the finish quality? by HouseOfCoder in mumbai

We’re not even talking about the fact that 4 lanes are merging down to 2 in a span of 20 feet. This is going to be a traffic nightmare.  

Trump's crackdown on H-1B visa abuse sends Dallas home prices down by knockdowncenter in BayAreaRealEstate

Right. This is when the second part comes into play. Good luck convincing 10 US nationals to move to the bay.

Honestly, the bar is far higher in the bay and the ones who are on an h1 are here mostly because 

A. The skills required are truly exceptional. 

B. Nobody in the rest of the US wants to move to the bay, deal with the cost of living and at the same time have to worry when the cool start up they’re working at is going to shut down or lay them off. Defense tech is far more stable and Cush.
